Best Spa Salons In Novato

“Jasmine was amazing! Her pressure level was perfect for the Swedish massage, and she was very kind and considerate.“

“Had a facial here yesterday, it's the first one I've had in quite a while. Darice was amazing, treatment was relaxing and my skin looks amazing. I'll definitely be back.“

“I've been going to sunset for about 15 years. Always relaxing and very professional. Easy to make reservations. And great value for the cost.“

“The Short of it: My Experience with Dream was amazing! Well...I guess it was as amazing as getting hair ripped off of your body can be! Scheduling was easy...her studio was bright, clean, and welcoming...she has a great personality...The pain was minimal...no post-wax/sugar skin issues AT ALL! Highly recommend.

The long of it: I recently moved to Novato, CA to be closer to family. I'm a 46-year-old man with a furrier back and shoulders than I'd like to admit and need regular waxing appointment. A friend of mine has been seeing Dream for years recommended her. I went on her site and scheduled an appointment -- it was super easy. On the day of my appointment, I arrived at the salon where her studio was located about 5 minutes early. There was plenty of parking, and there was a comfortable waiting area in the salon. Dream came out and greeted me with a smile, introduced herself and led me back into her studio.

A couple things to note:

1. Her name is ridiculous. It's not her fault -- I came to learn that her parents are hippies. Doesn't matter -- her name suits her personality.
2. She's really pretty. Does this matter at all? Nope. But, it's true.

Back to the review...

Her studio was clean. It smelled good, without having any overwhelming fragrance. It was bright, private, and very clean, but didn't have a cold, clinical feel. We talked about the services I signed up for -- back, shoulders, and nostrils (IYKYK) -- and she walked me through her process. It was great! Made me feel comfortable even though I knew I was about to experience pain (I'm very pain avoidant). I have been going to waxing appointments on and off for years. This was the first time I have been introduced to sugaring. She talked me through the difference between waxing and sugaring, telling me the pros and cons of each. I appreciated her informative approach, and we implemented a strategy.

She worked quickly but was very thorough. I have never experienced waxing with such a small amount of pain!! I am a yapper, so I really enjoyed talking with her -- she has an excellent personality and is really fun to talk to. Before I knew it, the appointment was over...and it went super smoothly! (see what I did there?). The best part -- I'm now a week past the appointment, I have had ZERO skin reactions, and my skin is pretty sensipoo. No bumps, breakouts, or rashes!

I re-booked on the spot and am actually looking forward to my next appointment.“

“Renovia is an excellent place to get a massage in Marin, and the prices are very reasonable. Lucy is an amazing massage therapist who is very attentive and identifies areas that need to be worked on. She asks what type of pressure you prefer and always delivers. If you are looking for someone who provides excellent massage care or just want a nice, relaxing massage, I highly recommend Lucy.“

“Very good massage, she knew intuitively how to get the spots that need attention after my training regime. I do a lot of bicycling and weight lifting, coming off of a rowing injury that has prevented me from rowing. She was very good with working around the healing areas. Highly recommended.“

“Outstanding facial - my face has never felt so good. Rochell really worked with me ahead of time, listening to my concerns and taking extra care with my reactive skin. Very professional, great products, and a super nice person - doesn't get any better!“

“Absolutely great! Sooo happy we decided to get a refurbished hot tub from them rather than buying an extremely expensive new one at a hot tub store. The tub came with both delivery and picking up our retired tub. And on top of that service is given at no extra cost. My thanks to Donn, Darron and Dominique!“

“The space itself is absolutely gorgeous and so relaxing. My husband surprised me for our anniversary and Amy was incredible her technique was so fluid and calming. They were also offered a peppermint scalp massage and hot stone for us and it was amazing (highly recommend adding it on!)Definitely recommend for anyone who needs to relax and have some self care!“
